DanceMan Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 I've made a slipstreamed install disk with USP5.0 SR1, removing OE and WMP, and have used it, along with the ic, DA, and DX files. I can't connect to Gmail with this install -- I get "done" but a blank page, using either FF 1.5 with Adblock or IE, even if I disable my firewall. I've been able to connect on another machine with an older 2K install.Can anyone suggest where I should look to solve this?
-I- Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 strange, - because Firefox 1.5 has nothing to do with Removing of any windows components, and so Gmail should just work. for IE i could emagine even though i wouldn't know why... did you use nlite - if so you should add your last_session.ini
DanceMan Posted December 16, 2005 Author Posted December 16, 2005 Yes, I used nLite, but the install I did it on has been wiped.It's not the browser. I just installed FF 1.5 on another machine with a different install of 2K and it accesses Gmail without a problem. Either I'm missing a plugin like Flash or JS, or I did something wrong during the slipstreaming. No problems with any other sites.
-I- Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 did you OEM Brand you install, iff so info on removed components should be in (right click my computer) - the nlite logo should be in the left down corner of the screen, and a buttot 'support information' should lead you to a list of remove components - if not, there's basicly little i can think of that could be the problem, -
HappyRay Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Have you installed Java? Gmail need it. (If you don't use the HTML-version, off course...)I use RyanVMs switchless installer for Sun Java, 'cause he re-pack them with the latest updates.
Gurgelmeyer Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 I think the problem could be cause either by nLite or - more likely - by my IC package, because it expects OE to be installed. Fortunately the IC package will be obsolete when USP 5.1 hits the web in a few days.Best regards (and sry if it really is my IC package),Gurgelmeyer B)
DanceMan Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 I've installed from a slipstreamed USP5.1 disk, with OE, WMP, and Messenger removed, and it loads Gmail without a problem.Again, thanks to Gurgelmeyer. You've produced a fine resource that's an enormous help to so many of us.
